About Veru

I am a Multilingual SEO & Globalization Consultant with over 20 years of experience working with prominent brands from EMEA, APAC, and the US (such as Booking.com, Amazon, Bytedance, Canva, Atlassian, etc), particularly those aiming to penetrate specific non-English-speaking markets. My work sits at the crucial intersection of SEO and Globalization. Here, I manage workflows and processes to streamline the collaboration between both teams, enhancing brand loyalty, visibility, and conversions in targeted markets.

With my academic background in sociology, sociolinguistics, Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), semiotics, and a master’s degree in Data Science

I bring a distinctive, culturally informed perspective to SEO and Globalization.

This approach weaves together the complex interplay of language, society, and data analytics, allowing me to decipher and comprehend the intricacies of our interconnected world. I’m Italian, and I spent 13+ years in Dublin. Now, I’m based in Lisbon, Portugal.

Services

My global expertise encompasses multilingual services in English, Italian, Spanish, Korean, French, Portuguese, and Japanese to various companies worldwide. This blend of disciplines empowers me to deeply explore how language influences our perception and interaction with the world, providing a rich and well-rounded approach to digital marketing strategies.

I am a certified project manager, proficient in English, Italian, Spanish, Korean, French, Portuguese, and Japanese. My leadership journey began in 2003, involving the guidance of both in-house and distributed teams, with upwards of 75 members working remotely across various markets. I highly value teamwork and take pride in building, leading, and mentoring teams towards growth and success.
